As a subcontractor to Foster Wheeler, Inc., EEA
completed over six hundred vibratory and gravity cores in the New Bedford
Inner and Outer Harbors during the past two years to assist in delineating
the PCB contamination hot zones and to map the vertical and horizontal
PCB concentrations throughout the Harbor.

PORT AUTHORITY VIBRATORY CORING STUDIES

Client: Port Authority of New York and
New Jersey/EA Science Engineering and TechnologyEEA, Inc. has performed numerous vibratory coring
surveys to assist the Port Authority in developing dredging plans in and
around Howland Hook Marine Terminal, La Guardia Airport, and various other
Port Authority owned/operated facilities along the Hudson and East Rivers.

FRESHWATER WETLAND CREATION USING DREDGED MATERIAL

Recently, under contract to a New York City agency,
EEA developed a concept of using dredged sediment material as a substrate
for the creation of a freshwater wetland. This plan would provide the client
with a number of significant advantages, including a unique and beneficial
dredge material disposal option, creation of a wetlands mitigation bank
and the benefits of a "green project." EEA also developed a wetlands creation
plan for stormwater control at an industrial facility in Newark, New Jersey.

BROOKLYN NAVY YARD

The Brooklyn Navy Yard requested a feasibility
study to determine if dredge spoil material from their main basin could
be used to fill in Wallabout Channel. This channel currently is not
being used within the Navy Yard since the cessation of ship construciton
and repair. Numerous water, ecology, sediment chemistry and fisheries
programs were conducted by EEA scientists. A permit application
has been submitted.

SCUFFLETOWN CREEK, NORFOLK VIRGINIAClient: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers/Foster Wheeler,
Inc.EEA, Inc. has developed a portable vibratory
coring system, which can be readily deployed on hired vessels throughout
the United States. EEA recently mobilized a coring system and crew
to assist Foster Wheeler to collect sediment samples, which were used to
further define limits of contamination from a specific point source within
Scuffletown Creek.Dredge Management Contact:
